EeasnrinE Sunshine

There are scattered over various portions
OF the country instruments which catch every
ray of sunshine and write IL down indelibly,
so that looking at the picture presented, we
may see az a glance whether such and such a
day was really fine or cloudy. The contriv-
snes by which this Is effected is exceedingly
simple, consisting. a. il does Of notAing more
thaa n solid glass ball set ON a pedestal with
a surrounding fraals in which 10 place at a
suitable angle q little strip Of blue card
board, where the effect Is seen In . scorched
patch Of more OF less distinctness. AS tho
relative position Of the sun changes the scorch
changes too, 70 that az the end Of bright.
sunny day ths picture on th. card consists OF
a long. scorched line. By measuring this
line ws get a record Of the number Of hours
sunshine prevalent during tho day. The In
strument, although conmendably simple, has
one great drawback. If the briIliancy Of the
suns rays bs shroudsd even to a very small
extent by mist, or by thin veil OF cirrus
cloud, the heat produced Is insufficient to pro-
dgcs a burn On the card
